Queries :: Query To Combine Different Fields From Multiple Tables?
May 13, 2014
I get tasked to use access very infrequently but now I have been asked to create a database. I am struggling with combining 2 tables. I have different data on each table however I do have a unique Identifier. So on table 1 I have Bud, his height, weight, etc. On table 2 I have Bud his home address, phone #, etc. I am using name "Bud" in this case as my unique identifier. I want to create a query that gives me Bud, his height, phone # etc. I want my query to pull in all records. Bud may only have info on table 1 and Budette could be on table 2 but not on table 1. I would like my query to include all the unique identifiers and as much info as I have in the tables.
Hey guys- I have 2 tables- and need to find the record matches between them via their product code. Table 1 has the code as follows (and is considered 'the Master List')- xxx-xx-xxx Where x is an integer.
Table 2 has split the 3 sections of the code out to 3 individual fields, like this- Field1 Field2 Field3 xxx xx xxx
I need a query that will combine the 3 fields in table 2 to the same format as Table1 so that I can find the matches between them. I know this is a basic question, but I'm a learning newbie. How would I write that in a query? I don't think I want to write the format to the table- just include it in the query somehow... Thanks!
Can anyone help me with how I can accomplish this?
Here is what I currently have:
10 SQL Pass-through queries to update different Date field (Date1, Date2, Date3, etc.) based on the value of the next date field.
This is how each individual query is set up (there are 10 in total) UPDATE tblApplications SET tblApplications.LastContact = [date1] WHERE (((tblApplications.Date2) Is Null) AND ((tblApplications.[Date Completed]) Is Null));
Here is what I would like to have: (as 1 query)
UPDATE tblApplications SET tblApplications.LastContact = [date1] WHERE (((tblApplications.Date2) Is Null) AND ((tblApplications.[Date Completed]) Is Null));
UPDATE tblApplications SET tblApplications.LastContact = [date2] WHERE (((tblApplications.Date1) Is Not Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date2) Is Not Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date3) Is Null) AND ((tblApplications.[Date Completed]) Is Null));
UPDATE tblApplications SET tblApplications.LastContact = [date3] WHERE (((tblApplications.[Date Completed]) Is Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date1) Is Not Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date2) Is Not Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date3) Is Not Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date4) Is Null));
Can I somehow combine them together like this or do I have to keep them as 10 seperate queries?
I am trying to create a Dlookup in Access 2010 within a query using query wizard. I want to lookup the tax rate for an employee based on a salary range and their 'tax category' (string). Through troubleshooting I can get the criteria to work separately.
These are: DLookUp("Base","TABWT","[TABWT].[Taxclass] = '" & [FirstOfTaxGroup] & "'")
DLookUp("Base","TABWT",[grosspay] & " Between [TABWT]![Minimum] And [TABWT]![MaxBracket]")
These work and return the correct values for each column/row when I run the query.
However, when I combine the criteria (using the build wizard) as follows:
Expr1: DLookUp("Base","TABWT","[TABWT].[Taxclass] = '" & [FirstOfTaxGroup] & "'" and [grosspay] & " Between [TABWT]![Minimum] And [TABWT]![MaxBracket]")
The Dlookup will returns 0 values but will not give an error message.
I've tried quite a few variations on syntax and quotes and so on. However, it's just not working for me.
I have multiple databases (one for each department). All 4 databases have an Agents table (tblAgents). Now I am creating another database that uses all of the agents on site. What I want to do is link all the agents tables and combine the values in one query.
The tables are linked to my new database. So logically, I'd think my next step is to query the tables. This is where I'm stuck. How do I say:
Agent = tblAgentsDepartment1.AgentName and also tblAgentsDepartment2.AgentName and also tblAgentsDepartment3.AgentName and also tblAgentsDepartment4.AgentName?
I have a complex database app that has a form called from the main form. It requires two inputs: BeginningDate and EndingDate and I use a calendar picker for date selection. Using data assigned to a variable, I build the SQL query in VBA. The result is:
Code: SELECT [1733_All Print Orders].[Application], Sum([1733_All Print Orders].[TotalImages]) AS SumOfCCPC FROM [1733_All Print Orders] WHERE [Application] = 'CCPC' AND [StatementDate] >= #9/3/2013# AND [StatementDate] <= #9/30/2013# GROUP BY [1733_All Print Orders];[Application]
[1733_All Print Orders] is a defined query that combines 4 tables together and there are data that falls within the dates for CCPC. But the query returns no records.
I pasted the query to the query builder and using different combinations, I isolated that the [StatementDate] >= #9/3/2013# portion is what returns no records
To complicate matters even worse, prior to today, it worked. I made some adds and changes to another area of the application, but did not touch this code.
I have an Access DB built that links to an excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet changes so I cannot import and have to link.
Now the source of my spreadsheets is producing two spreadsheets with identical fields but different data. I need to combine the data from these two spreadsheets. Can I link them both and combine them in a query? How?
I have multiple tables that are created from some software that puts them each into the access database. each table is one year of data. the software cannot put all years into one table because of memory. I want to combine these tables into one. In addition, I need to do some manipulatins: the dates come over as MM-DD-YYYY strings and I need to convert them to dates MM/DD/YYYY, and also I need to parse a string to extract the General Ledger account number. I know how to use this easily from within Excel VBA using dateserial, and Instr etc., but now sure how/if I put some code into access and have it called to do this for me automatically. Each night the most recent year is automatically updated in access, so the combination file needs to be refreshed whenever the most recent year file changes.
I currently doing all of this in excel: first initialize the NewCombinedTable, then one by one dumping each year file into an excel worksheet, doing the work needed, then appending it to the NewCombinedTable. However, I think it would work much quicker if I was able to trigger the Combination to happen in Access along with the data manipulations.
I also need to know whether DAO or ADO is best for me to use with 2010...
The problem I'm having is that i need to combine 12 tables with multiple columns and not all columns have the same headers. So if a column is present it should be updated, if not it should be added.
The end result should be one column with all records and all columns that exists in all 12 tables.
The tables have an identifier that is the same for all columns (supplier reference).
Table 1 has 56 columns Table 2 has 42 columns (of which some have the same header) ....
(--doing every column manually is something i would like to avoid if possible --)
I have 4 or 5 tables. Most of the fields are exactly the name but they all have at least 1 to possibly 5 or six fields that are not in the other table. Additionally there are some duplicates within the individual tables as well as across tables.
i.e.
I have a
Student Table - with all the info on the student as well as a column called student that identifies them as such however it does not have the columns parent, donor, appeal, designation..... Parent Table - with all the info on the student as well as a column called parent that identifies them as such however it does not have the columns student, donor, appeal, designation..... Donor Table - with all the info on the student as well as a column called donor that identifies them as such however it does not have the columns student, parent, appeal, designation..... Appeal Table - with all the info on the student as well as a column called appeal that identifies them as such however it does not have the columns student, parent, donor, designation.....
-A person can be within one of these tables more than once but with all the same information. -A person can also fall into all of these parameters so they could be on every table with the same information in addition to the missing columns,=.
Question 1 : what is the best way to dedupe and delete the individual tables (they all have account numbers) Question 2: I was thinking create a new table with all the columns available, however how do i dedupe across tables while populating the additional columns from each?
I have 10 tables, 30+ fields on each table (every table has the same 'account number' field). I only need from 5 - 20 fields from each table. How do I get the certain fields from each table and put them in a table, query or report?
I have create 6 tables for library books (which are differentiated by categories). Each table has different category and unique ID name e.g. F1, F2, F3..(for table 1), G1, G2, G3..(for table 2) and so on. How do I combine all those tables into 1 table for easy search for a book rather than open up each table? Tried append query but its ID run as 1, 2, 3... , not F1, F2, F3 and it only append 1 table, not the rest.
We are a non-profit that does blind mailings for our membership drive. The company who we buy names and addresses from sends us a delimited file that has these fields as the headings
" ID, FULLNAME,COMPANY, ADR1, ADR2, CITY, STATE, ZIP, FIPS"
Once they send out the mailings, people then send in back a remit slip with a contribution that gets scanned through a program that creates a file that gives us these titles
"ALT ID, AMOUNT PAID, RUN DATE, TENDER, FUND, PURPOSE, SOLICITATION, MEMBERSHIP QUESTION, MEMBER TYPE, CONSTITUENT TYPE, SEGMENT". The "ALT ID" and "ID" are the same in both tables.
I need to find a way to merge the tables and combine the fields that have the same ID # , and then have it create a csv file that reads like this (see below) for only the files of the people that responded so that I can import it into our membership software.
I have a few input tables and I am trying to combine the fields from 2 tables into one query. How do I go about doing it without having the project amount (highlighted in red) being duplicated?
I have a database with two tables, one for the amount that was estimated in each cost section, and one for the actual amount billed for each cost section. The tables have the same number of fields, all with the same names. They can be linked together with event ID. Each table has over 100 fields and I would like to find the difference between what was estimated and what the actual was for each event. I would also like to see which cost section has the most and least variance. I am trying to do this without going through each cost and putting [tEst].[CostName]-[tActual].[CostName].
I want to combine six different memo fields into one. I found this code and it works to combine two fields so I edited to add a third and it does not do anything.
I have a table "MansComps" which includes two fields, the "Index" field which contains a number, e.g "5" and the "Tabletype" field which contains a letter e.g "T". i have created a query based on this table, which combines these two fields and displays the result to a third field which I call "Components".
field: Index 1, 2, 3,....
field: Tabletype T
field: "Component" has to be like this: T00001, T00002,...
I have managed to combine the fields in my query using the expression:
Component: [Tabletype] & " " & [Index]
but the results appear without the leading zeros, like T1, T2..I have set my Index content to be a number and as a primary key and the Tabletype as a text. I also tried to change the format of Index to "00000" which works for the Index field separately but not for the Component field.Should I do something in the format of the Component field?
Here is my current table structure (I have omitted some fields from this example and have given some sample data in italics to make the table structure more clear.
tblEmployees
ID (autonumber) 3 EmployeeName John EmployeePhone 555999555 EmployeeLocation New York
tblClients
ClientID (autonumber) 1 , 2 , 3 ClientName ABC Company , XYZ Company, PQR Company fkeyLocationID
tblLocations LocationID 1 , 2 Location New York , Chicago
The junction table tblEmployeeClients only stores ID of the Employee and in the second column (which is a multi-valued field), the ID of each of the clients the employee Supports.
I am trying to generate a report that lists say, EmployeeName alongside the clients supported by the Employee (listing the client location is not required, however, it would be good to know how to do that as well).
The report (for the example above), should look like this:
Name Clients Supported John ABC Company, PQR Company
Currently, I am able to get :
John 1, 2 i.e the client ID for the clients that the employee supports instead of the corresponding company names.
A list of codes that will be updated monthly, which will be the basis for querying the second table. Approx 100 rows of data.
2. Table Original
A data file obtained from IT where i'll need to sort it to find any codes that are including in Table1. This includes approx ~ 10,000 row of data.
** note, the "BIC" from "Table BIC" can appear in any of the 5 BIC columns in Table Original.
What i need to do is create a query that will:
1. Search the "BIC" from "Table BIC" in all 5 columns of "Table Original".
2. Where it has a hit, it will create new table - for example, the first row of table Original includes the BIC "ABC" in the "BIC 1" column. A query would create table "ABC" and place this whole record (all 8 fields) in new table "ABC". No modification needed.
3. Where two (or more) BIC's from "Table BIC" appear in one record in "Table Original" - the result will only need to be placed in one of the new tables (really doesn't matter which one). For example, Record #4 includes the BIC "ABC" in field "BIC1" and the BIC "DEF" in the field "BIC4". Therefore, a new table would be created (either ABC or DEF) to capture this information.
i I have two queries.. What i'm hoping is to combine the result into one query but not in one column only but instead the result of the second query should be beside the first query.. The result of the second query should be added as a new column.
First Query
SELECT tbl_uSers.UserName, Count(tbl_rEceived_eMail.EntryID) AS eMailReceived FROM tbl_rEceived_eMail INNER JOIN tbl_uSers ON tbl_rEceived_eMail.UseriD = tbl_uSers.UseriD GROUP BY tbl_uSers.UserName;
Second Query
SELECT tbl_uSers.UserName, Count(tbl_rEceived_eMail.EntryID) AS eMailProcessed FROM tbl_rEceived_eMail INNER JOIN tbl_uSers ON tbl_rEceived_eMail.UseriD = tbl_uSers.UseriD GROUP BY tbl_uSers.UserName, tbl_rEceived_eMail.ProcessedYN HAVING (((tbl_rEceived_eMail.ProcessedYN)="Y"));
I want to Compare the results in a single query. However the amounts aren't correct and after a full day I cannot find the answer.
Code: SELECT [Budget].Month AS [MONTH], [Budget].[Organization Code], [Budget].Account, Sum([Budget].AMOUNT) AS [Budget Amount], Sum([Actuals].AMOUNT) AS [Actuals Amount] FROM [Budget], [Actuals] GROUP BY [Budget].Month, [Budget].[Organization Code], [Budget].Account, [Budget].SubAccount HAVING ((([Budget].SubAccount)="K08"));
I have developed a database which has required many checkbox fields to enable analysis. It requires to have the facility to input random/variable date ranges for statistical purposes.
I have built a query which obtains the counts of multiple fields using the following parameters in Query Builder in Access 2010. Although this comes up with the correct results for these multiple fields when I try introduce date range the results come up blank for all results.
An example of the parameters used for one of the checkbox fields in Query Builder is as follows:
Field: SumAnger: Sum([Anger]*-1) Table: Default as only one table Total: Expression Show: Checked
This works fine.
My latest parameters for the date range are this:
Field: [cDate] Table: Default as only one table Total: WHERE Corrected! Whoops Copy & Paste Typo. Too early AM! Show: Checked or Unchecked makes no difference Criteria: Between [From Date:] And [To Date:]
This gives a statement in SQL view of:
SELECT Sum([Anger]*-1) AS SumAnger, Sum([Anxiety]*-1) AS SumAnxiety, Sum([Depression]*-1) AS SumDepression, Sum([Listening]*-1) AS SumListenig, Sum([Psychosis]*-1) AS SumPsychosis, Sum([Stress]*-1) AS SumStress, Sum([Other]*-1) AS SumOther, tblCommsLog.[cDate] FROM tblCommsLog WHERE (((tblCommsLog.[cDate]) Between [From Date:] And [To Date:]));
what I need to get this to work in Query Builder or failing that recommend some VBA script/code with embedded SQL to achieve the required report.
Is it at all possible to search across multiple tables with one query. I have a database with about 15 tables and my users would like to be able to search for text across all the fields in all the tables. I have a simple find record command on each table, but in case they are not sure which table to search i would like to offer a search function which in theory searches the whole database.
I have 15 tables (eg witnesses/policies/activities etc), each with different fields (eg name, address/ policy decision, policy reason/ activity undertaken, activity person etc etc) . In total i would like to be able to search about 50 fields. All i need returned from the search is the record ID from the relevant table, or anything to simply identify the record & relevant table. And then they could go to the correct place to look the record up.
I have been looking for an answer for a while. I have seen queries where you enter the parameters against each field going down a row each time for criteria being "OR" each time, but there are a limited number of rows on a query design so i run out of rows.
I have three queries that make a training list based on a person's role, team, and ad-hoc exceptions. The personnelID field is filtered by a listbox on a form. Each of these work great on their own (nice!). Now I want to combine them. I made the below union query that works... however when it is run, I am prompted to enter the personnelID again. This prompt only happens once. Do I need to incorporate a qhere statement somewhere, even though each of the individual queries have them already?
SELECT First_Name, Last_Name, TrainingTitle, PersonnelID FROM qryPersonnelTrainingByRole UNION ALL SELECT First_Name, Last_Name, TrainingTitle, PersonnelID FROM qryPersonnelTrainingByTeam UNION ALL SELECT First_Name, Last_Name, TrainingTitle, PersonnelID FROM qryPersonnelTrainingByAdHocPersonnel;
The where statement of potential use:
Code: WHERE (((tblPersonnel.PersonnelID)=[Forms]![frmMain]![lbxPersonnel]));
